"GTFO. They are doing this as fast as they can. If you want it done faster learn to mod and help them out. If you cant do that then don't complain they aren't moving fast enough for your liking."

Thats a load of BS.  If I have Swine Flu and am told i'll have a vaccine soon but, then Its never given do I not then have a right to complain and voice my frustration.  Do I have to become a maker of Flu Vaccines before I can complain!!??  This mod has been in development for a long time and so far.... all that has been released to its many fans is a one ship installment. 

I am grateful to Eomega and his team for the work they are doing out of the delight of their heart and the demonstration of their talent But......

One has to relize that the quest for perfection is futile.  Nothing will ever be perfect.  Release something and continue to work and patch it.  That is the way it goes with all programs and with all mods.  Everything has to be patched.  If I build a house I will eventually have to make repairs and will wish to upgrade it with something I couldn't afford in the beginning.

I understand that i'm not gonna be Mr. Popular for saying this but, no one that speaks the truth ever is in the beginning.  Go ahead and rage at me just know that I don't give a ****.

Did you really just compare a free mod to a vaccine you would pay for? Because you were never 'promised' anything. You were informed that these people were making a mod and when it's finished it would be released. You're mixing up entitlement with privilege. When Eomega feels comfortable with a release, I'm sure he'll do so. After all, the mod isn't even close to ready. Tuari aren't finished and other races are hardly started.

man i was really looking forward to getting this mod but its gonna be a failure. Why you ask? Because you can't even release a genuine sample and its been in devolopment for at least 2 years and you dont even have one race done yet. The Stargate Races was a success, and as far as i know they had a much smaller team working on it with fairly ship models. Btw the way its impossible to stop anyone who wants to get the mod from getting it unless you never release, which is likey as you will DIE before you finish.

First off, comparing the mod that we are putting together in our free time to a flu vaccine that the government has told everyone will have access to no matter what is complete BS.  This is a FREE, read the word, FREE, mod.  You have no idea the work that goes into programing a mod, the time it takes to make a model, and to then texture that model.  If we had more people, rather then just the 3 of us, then we could get the mod done that much faster.  Right now, as it stands, there are 2 of us that are model makers, one of us that is a texture artist and our new member that you all know, JTAYLORPCS, is a code guru.  Now being that he is the code guru, we can get everything we need coding wise done, then all we have to worry about it is the model making.... Which really takes time.

Now, to part 2 of my rant... Saying that our mod is going to fail is kind of pushing the envelope for me.  Its your personal opinion that our mod is going to fail, and that SG Races is superior.  Im not saying that our mod is going to be superior to SG Races, this is because I talk with DolyNick, I helped him with ideas, and he helped me with some as well.  Now your rant about us dieing before we finish the mod... that is completely uncalled for.  I suggest that you shut your mouth, if you dont want to follow the mod anymore, then dont.  Nobody is twisting your arm making you wait for the mod.

Now for the final note on the ranting side...

Im not trying to make a PERFECT mod.  Im trying to get it close to possible, with very very little bugs, but I will not hold the mod like a little greedy kid because it isnt completely perfect.  I ammore then willing to release a mod with problems, but we need to get to that point in the first place, and all these people creating posts about how we are failing, and this and that doesnt help the matters. Oh and on the note of not letting certain people have it, Riser was making a joke, not being serious.  Please learn the difference.

That is enough of my ranting, now to get to some good news and such.

Thank you very much EternalRequiem for your post, it was very satisfying to see someone from the community, and not our mod team get involved in stomping these little brush fires out.

If you have been to our site, you will notice that I have posted certain things there that I havent here.  This is because I like to have a small place to work, and updating to one site is easier then updating 3 or 4 sites.  When I have something big to post, then I will be sure to post here.  Please everyone, be patient, we are trying to get the mod out as fast as we can, but you have to realize that we need TIME to finish the mod.

My swine flu comment was a mere metaphor used to suggest that one does not have to be both a producer and consumer to express their opinion ( I do not have to make my own sandwich at Hardee's to have an opinion on how long its taking to make and produce it).  As for this mod being free.....yeah, It will be free and it will all be thanks to you and your team and I am grateful for that but, you have made this project public and as such it is only natural that it has found fans and people anticipating playing it and they are going to be disappointed in delays and will express those feelings in an appropriate venue......right here.  You should be glad.....you've provoked strong emotions and desires for your talent.....might that also translate into money if the right eyes in the business notice that talent when the mod is released?

I do not have to be a programmer or 3-d artist to realize that it is taking a "while" to complete a modification of a completed game.

Understand that I do realize that these things take time however, your team has placed a lot of images of models in game that are supposed to be done??? 

When someone has a question about the mod's progress or a release date the default response from the team should not be the denegration of the person asking the question.  Transparency is key to beating out these "Brushfires" as you call them (I call them legitimate questions).

I too disagree with superfleet...if only because you and your team has already put a great deal of time and effort into this.  I must say that yes, I would be disappointed with a "half assed" release however, I would rather have a half assed mod release than nothing.  Here's the deal....I don't want to rush you....I come here and I look for updates and get a little rush in my heart when I notice a change in the title link.  I would not have said anything about this at all had Myles not come down so hard on that one guy for asking questions about a release......it was his right to ask questions. 

Do what you feel is right...its your mod....your talent....your time.  I'm glad you're doing it.......

Hey I understand the model part completely, I've been in practice modeling ships and stuff with wings3D and it is tougher than it looks to construct a model from scratch or even from something that was drawn out and you have examples to go by. I hate it when I see bashing that is uncalled for so I had to say something to get these nibblets ass lickers to STFU. And it makes me think that a lot of people who keep bugging you guys are actually kids who have no idea what your doing and how hard it is, also adding on to that if there are ADULTS here who are spatting out in that way... they are pretty freaking immature. In essence it's best to have someone who understands and supports you. I've played a lot of mods here and most of them a pretty good. Heck I'm waiting for this one, and Manshooters WIP mod. BTW keep up the good work no matter how long it takes. The only reason you guys are going slow is because you have a small team plus RL can get in the way of things, combined with other stuff it's completely understandable.

Excess rant done...

@Myles......demanding that he GTFO and become a programmer or modder was a little much.

If someone is making a despairing comment or remark then attack it with reason and replace it with hope for the mod.  Attacking someone who is a fan and is obviously wishing this mod all success is not the appropriate response.  That guy would not have said anything if he did not give a damn.........

Not everyone that shits on you or says something negative is trying to tear you down.

And yes, I do realize this stuff is hard....i'm trying my hand at modelling and programming.....it does take time.  I think that 2yrs is a while however Eomega has addressed that and I accept his reasons.  A team of two is pretty thin on the ground.

Lets take a moment and think.....I support this mod and team...you do....we all do.....so, the real problem is that we all know that its taking a while and that scares us.  No one wants to see work on this mod stop.  The new addition to the mod team should be seen as awesome news.  It indicates that work is continuing and that we should expect even more in the coming weeks and months.  This is great news.

Hi, I have two questions. But first, I'de like to comment on your time, dedication and commitment to the mod. It's great, everything you make looks great and the things you improvise on look like they would had the origonal stargate team made it.

First, will you be changing any physics to the gameplay? Just wondering.

And second, will this mod use alot of memory? On many previous occasions, I have played a mod that my computer cannot handle, (not to sound big-headed but) even with 2gb of RAM.

Thanks.

He was asked a long time ago. think its the first or second post on his forum page.  A sample was released its called the bc 304 mini mod.   

yes we will be adding in new gravity wells, I have a couple posted up on our Invision free boards.

I got a question.

On the Moddb site, there's a mod for two different DSC-304's, both Capital Ships.   Are they for entrenchment or reglar sins (please say regular!)

will there be any more mini mods to come
